Если вы строили RAG в 2023, ваш стек выглядел плюс-минус одинаково. BERT-семейство (BGE, e5) для семантики, BM25 для буквальных совпадений, cross-encoder для реранкинга, какой-нибудь Qdrant сверху. Этим жили два года, и многие до сих пор так живут.Но если посмотреть, кто реально гоняется в продакшене у команд, которые ушли вперёд, ландшафт другой. Энкодеров там почти нет.

Знаменитый в своё время и крайне плодовитый французский автор Альбер Робида оставил после себя несколько книг и тысячи рисунков — в том числе множество иллюстраций к своей пародии на Жюля Верна под названием «XX век». Именно эти ироничные картинки в очень характерном стиле породили эстетику того, что теперь мы зовём стимпанком — только тогда это был не ретро-, а просто футуризм. Что более удивительно, в «XX веке», писавшемся в 1880-е... Read more ›
